Fenoli who is currently 58 years old was also in a relationship with Michael Landry for 8 years but unfortunately the latter passed away in 2021 at the age of 52. Not much is known about his previous partners, as he keeps his dating and personal life secret from him.
Timeline of Randy Fenoli and Mete Kobal’s relationship
Randy met video maker Mete at the Marmara Park Avenue hotel in January 2022. At the time, Kobal was working as a bartender at the restaurant. According to Instagram, Randy Fenoli and Mete Kobal began dating shortly after January and eventually met each other’s family and friends in the months that followed.
The couple has been seen at many events together ever since. In December, Randy proposed to Mete at the Marmara in front of 50 of his family members and friends. Since Kobal is from Turkey, some of her family members were also on a Zoom video call.
In an interview with People, Randy said after the proposal:
“I’m the king of brides. I’ve been doing this for 30 years and honestly, I never thought it would happen to me.”
He also said that he was ready to stay single for the rest of his life before he met Mete. The proposal had a special Turkish food station to celebrate Mete’s heritage.
They haven’t decided on a date for the ceremony yet, but it looks like they want to have a destination wedding. In an interview, Randy shared how they wanted to get married on Princess Cruise Lines, which travels through Greece, Italy, and ends in Istanbul.
Randy Fenoli said,
“I’m thinking it could be something where we could do a little ceremony in maybe Italy or on the ship or something and then we’ll get to Istanbul. We can go ashore and have a reception for all her friends there and her family.”
Both Instagram posts often include his dog Chewy.
